Sean hannity, Bill Oreilly and Greata standing up for Roger Ailes

http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/2a8aa246-4dd7-11e6-88c5-db83e98a590a.html#axzz4EtkIc7bM

According to Drudge, they're threatening to leave if Roger Ailes is fired.

I guess they know what side their vread is buttered on, no matter how
many people Roger Ailes sexually harrasses, they're going to support him.

but I'd be quite pleased if they'd quit. Not that we can count on Fox hiring actual journalists, but it would be nice for them to lose their access to the airwaves.

If Ailes is no longer with Fox. But, where else would they go? With Murdoch's kids being Democrats, seems like there will be a lot of housecleaning, sooner than later...

InSannity is just a fucked up individual and Greta has been drinking the cool-aid for way too long to be even relevant.
